A Display Management Switch (DMS) knob for an F-16 Fighting Falcon sidestick is 3D printed at Aviano Air Base, Italy, June 14, 2022. Installing this part directly on the aircraft would alleviate the removal of the sidestick, supply processing, back shop maintenance and reinstallation, ultimately turning a $131.90 job into a 10 cent job and saving 30 man-hours per knob replacement.(U.S. Air Force photo by Senior Airman Brooke Moeder)
